Felt Christmas decorations with beads and embroidery

1 Use the template which is available as a separate PDF file on this page and cut out two pieces of felt for each hanging decoration.

2 Embroider your chosen design with DMC metallic thread. Push the needle up from the back and through a sequins on the front. Thread a bead onto the thread and push the needle back through the sequins and onto the back.

3 Sew the front and the back felt parts together with buttonhole stitches once you have finished decorating the front. Leave a small opening and fill with polyester stuffing before closing it completely.

Another variant Mark the design with a pencil on the back and use it as a guide when embroidering the design, pushing the needle from the back onto the front.

5 Sew sequins and beads onto the front as shown in the photo.

6 Finish by sewing on a thread for hanging.
